I don't think this line authorizes TCP/IP socket connections, but rather,
only Unix sockets. Since JDBC uses TCP/IP even if you are on the same
machine, you'll need a similar auth record starting with "host" for
127.0.0.1 (locahost) like the one below, or using trust as the method if you
prefer.
> host all 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 ident sameuser
